Distressed Spider Monkey
glu
Field recording from SE Peru. Came across this pissed off spider monkey and decided to record a few minutes of this vocal bout. I’m not sure what elicited such a vocal temperament, and of course, at the time, I was worried it was a large cat. Could have been pigs, nearby sympatric primate species, who knows.. The string samples were lifted from the philharmonic orchestra. I remapped onto the keys and played something to compliment the mood of that morning.
The first clip in that KT mix is actually from a songs called "spider monkey". Thanks for all the kind words by the way!
OSSUM.
I was at the Cincinnati Zoo a couple weekends ago and heard some irritated monkeys of my own. There were two bonnaroo monkeys that were just making noises back and forth. I wish I would have brought my field recorder!
...must be set free !
